Pinterest
are introducing a new registration process for UK pinner's. The campaign is similar to
the one used when they started up in the US. Bloggers were some of
the first people to introduce Pinterest to the world and Pinterest hope the
same thing will happen across the UK.
#Pin it Forward wanted to work with bloggers who
currently use Pinterest and showcase one of their own favourite boards – my
favourite board is "knitting, crochet and my blog"
where I pin images from my blog and also images from other people’s blogs –
images I love, projects I want to try, or just images I want to remember.

| a few of my boards....................... |
The launch is running for 30 days and 300 bloggers
from the UK have been chosen to share boards and stories about what inspires
them about Pinterest. All sorts of bloggers from crafters, home cooks, to
globe-trotting writers and more have been chosen - no matter what you’re
interested in Pinterest will have inspiring images that will be perfect for
you.
I haven't been registered for very long
but I have found it a fabulous
vehicle for creativity, I love Pinterest for helping me keep my images
organised and easy to find. I have boards that I use to separate my different blog
post themes, I post weekly on a yarn along link up, 52 weeks of happy
link up and many more. I also have a board for special holiday images, for me
it works brilliantly. Once you have registered it's very simple to use - if you
see an image you like on a blog, or a website, or anywhere, you just click it and the
image is saved onto any board you have set up. If you would like to register with Pinterest click here if you would like to follow my boards click here
